What's your current carbon brand
 
In your reef tank, what carbon are you using in your reactor ?

I have a TLF 150 and am running out of the Fluval junk I had leftover from my FW days

Thanks for any input

Vertex Rox 0.8 Activated Carbon.
Powerful stuff, you only need 150mL per every 100gallons so a package of this stuff would last a long time for you and your 75G!

What's wrong with the fluval? Been running it for almost 2 years with no problems

I ran that for years with no problems too.


But now I use Kent carbon. I know they had a crappy deal in the past, but I've been using it for over a year now with no problems, and good results. I also like that it is bigger clumps, so it's not as messy in the reactor.

I've been using BRS ROX 0.8 activated carbon. Seems to do the job really well.

Also using fluval. Seems good
